Explain Ionisation potential...with example
Dear student,
Ionization potential is the minimum energy required to remove the outermost electron from an isolated neutral gaseous atom. It is expressed in terms of Volts.
For example, when we remove an electron from a neutral fluorine atom to form a positively charged ion. F(g)-----> F+(g) + e-
Ho = 1681.0 kJ/mol.
So, here the ionization potential is 1681.0 KJ/mol
